# Start A Production Run

With assets, items, item-asset links, and production rates in place, we can now go ahead and manually start a production run, enter counts and run state information, and review the result in the Run Review screen.

### Set The Home Page

The home page is a configurable dashboard which allows you to set what is displayed on the home page every time you log in. It is specific to the logged in user. 
Gateway Admins can also make this the default page for guest users.
